Is anyone else finding that using a savefile from an earlier version of Wary breaks Wary 5.2?_________________Classic Opera 12.16 browser SFS package for Precise, Slacko, Racy, Wary, Lucid, etc available here

DaveS,
I also responded to your post on my blog. Here is that response:

Actually, /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops is a symlink that I put in after discussion with rcrsn51.

Could you try two things:

1. delete that symlink. Then try printing.

2. replace the symlink with the actual file, that is, copy it from /usr/bin/pdftops. Then try printing again.

I think that the first one will fix it, but I am interested to know if number 2 also works.

Tried both solutions. Neither worked. Deleting the symlink gives a file not found error, replacing the symlink with the lib gives the exact same error as before._________________Spup Frugal HD and USB

Two issues on my desktop system:
1) as installed, both Full & Frugal tried, the /tmp directory write permissions being set by default to "off" prevent Cups from letting my fujixerox colour laser print. Changing the permissions to "write" for Group and World lets me use the printer. Thanks to rcrsn51 for his help in sorting this out for me. So this is sort-of a "Solved" or "Soluble" bug.

2) I cannot get xorgwizard to run any radeon or ATI driver on my graphics card (reported as ATI Cedar Pro [Radeon HD 5450], oem=ATI ATOMBIOS product=Cedar 01.00) so I can best use my 1600x900 monitor.
Wary defaults to vesa and 1280x1080 which is poor quality graphics compared to virtually all other current Pups that have very usable radeon drivers, and/or I can install one of the ATI-catalyst pets. Trying a few (wrong-kernel) ATI-Catalyst pets wreck the Wary install.

Well, I don't know what to suggest. Many earlier puppies, included early Wary's, did not have 'pdftops', yet printing worked.

I just did a simple test of pdftops, in /usr/share/examples:

# pdftops Acrobat.pdf out.ps

...and it worked.

I have re-downloaded both Wary and Racy twice, re-installed each several times, always with a new save file, and always the result is the same... unable to print from Gnumeric or Geany. Printing test page direct from CUPS interface is fine._________________Spup Frugal HD and USB
